In the novel, Yukawa successfully deduces the truth and realizes that Yasuko was Togashi's actual murderer, and that Ishigami killed a homeless man to manufacture an alibi for her. Yasuko confesses to the authorities once Yukawa tells her the full extent of what Ishigami did for her, and because her daughter attempted suicide due to the guilt.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Ajit Mhatre is even ''more'' of an AssholeVictim than the novel's Shinji Togashi. While Togashi was a car salesman who stole money from his employer and was then fired, Ajit is a DirtyCop actively involved in a number of criminal activities, and who is wanted by his colleagues before his death. Togashi met Yasuko when she was already a nightclub hostess, while Ajit ''sold'' Maya into service as a pole-dancer after their marriage. And while Togashi's nefarious designs on his former step-daughter Misato are disgusting enough, Ajit's desire to exploit his ''biological'' daughter Tara takes his vileness to a whole different level.

* HappilyEverBefore: [[spoiler: The film ends with Naren's plan to take the fall for Ajit's murder succeeding, and him being arrested and imprisoned while Maya is cleared of all suspicion. We never get to see Karan discover the truth behind the murder, and Maya's involvement, the way Professor Yukawa discovered the truth in the novel and shared it with Yasuko, leading to her making a confession out of guilt. Consequently, Maya and her daughter have a far happier ending compared to their novel counterparts.]]
